MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Twins released their 2026 regular-season schedule Tuesday, revealing a March 26 Opening Day matchup against the Baltimore Orioles at Oriole Park at Camden Yards and an April 3 Home Opener at Target Field against the Tampa Bay Rays.
It marks the earliest Opening Day in franchise history, edging 2025's season opener by one day. The Twins will open their season on the road for the third consecutive year and the 12th time in the past 16 seasons. This will be the fifth time the Twins have begun a season in Baltimore.
Minnesota's first home game of the season will be against Tampa Bay, a familiar opponent for such an occasion; the Rays also visited for the club's Home Opener in 2000 at the Metrodome.
The 2026 season will be the Twins' 66th campaign in Minnesota a
